Where to get csound(freeware??)

There's been some discussion of Csound and the Analog Devices SHARC chip.
Here's what I've heard on the Csound list:

Barry Vercoe's group at MIT has been working with AD to modify Csound
for real-time execution on the DSP.  It was at the demo stage for the
'96 ICMC, whose proceedings include some short papers on the system.
AD has (will have?) a kit including this extended Csound and a SHARC
card.  My understanding is that the extended Csound will not be freely
available, and Vercoe's group will not be maintaining the old Csound.

See <http://www.maths.ex.ac.uk/~james/csound_list/1723.html> for an
overview, and you can search the Csound archives for "SHARC" at
<http://www.maths.ex.ac.uk/~james/csound_list/>.  On Csound in general:
<http://onyx.dartmouth.edu/~dupras/wCsound/csoundpage.html>.
